| I would like
to have someone research the newspapers in Silver City for a trial
in the town--probably New Mexico vs. Bill (or William)
CARROLL. The trial took place on June 4, 1880, and
CARROLL was charged in the stabbing death of Robert
FAMBRO (or FAMBROUGHT) in Shakespeare on May 28,
1880.
I would like to receive a copy of the actual newspaper items with the masthead and dates of the stories attached, if possible. Please contact me at the above e-mail address and let me know if fees for research and copying are payable in advance, or will you bill? Thanks so much, in advance, for any help you can provide.

| Help needed!
I am looking for a James ONEAL who died in the Silver City
area about 1894. He is buried in the Redrock Cemetery along with
some of the HARPERs. Any history of the land or the death
would be appreciated.
The family says that James was very wealthy and that he was supposed to be a math genius, and that he would travel with the circus to perform math puzzles, etc. Is there any history in the area on this ancestor? My great grandmother was born in 1893, and after her father's death, her mother, Louella HARPER, remarried a fellow named CARNAHAN. I am anxious to hear of any information you might have. Thank you! | |

any information on a Thelma STRANGE, born in 1888 in Grant
County, died in 1899 in Lordsburg, and buried in the Shakespeare
Cemetery at Lordsburg. The Courthouse in Lordsburg does not have any
records on this time period, prior to Hidalgo County being formed. I
am trying to determine who her parents were. Any information would be a great help. Thank you! |
